BIG THEATRICAL week.
Cora Tanner, in Alone in London, at
the Hennepin.
ROLAND REED AND STROGOFF
At the Grand Chimney Corner at the
Peoples and 0thello at the
PeIce--0ther Notes.

This evening Robert Buchanan'S great
drama, "Alone in London" will be pro-
duced at the Hennepin Avenue theater
with remarkably strong cast, and with
all the scenic and mechanical effects
that go to make this powerful drama
representing romantic phases of life
the most realistic and intensely inter-
eSting play of its kind on the stage. The
piece is an admirably constructed story
dealing with the types of living charac-
tiers, and it possesses all the elements
which go to make perfect play. The
story by itself is simple, dealing as it
does with the adventures of young
country girl, who rejects an honest mil
Ter to marry q more fascinating adven-
turer, who. in the guise of an honest
man, turns her foolish head and wins
her heart. After marriage she finds that
her hush and is swell mObsman, the
associate of thieves and blacklegs. and
she is in their company subjected to all
the perilS of great city. She is pro-
tected, however, by a poor street waif
whom she had befriended in happier
days, and. when the clouds that darken
her life are most gloomy. her country
lover turns up to rescue her from the
perilS by which she is surrounded.
The organization presenting alone
in London" is one of the best now
travelling. Cora Tanner, who plays the
heroine, Annie Meadows. is a Young
American actress of brilliant talents.
and her impersOnation of the character
is marked by strong individuality that
has given her a place among the fore
most American actresses.
Charles q. Craig, a well known actor,
plays the william, and gives singularly
vivid piece of acting in the part. Will
lam A. Sands is John BidelIecomb, the
hOneSt-hearted miller. Miss Ada Dwyer
plays the character Of Tom Chickweed.
the Waif, very cleveTly. Len Grover
ST., has clever bit of character acting
as an old thief, and the other parts are
i'll equally competent hands.
The scenic effects of the play are
superb. the view of Westminster bridge,
particularly fine. The play will be pre-
Sented with every attention to detail
and in a manner characteriZing this
house. which so far has been noted for
the admirable manner in which pieces
are mounted.
GRAND OPERA-ROLAND REED.
Very fine: finished, neat and quiet is
the Jack LuSter of Roland Reed. His
work in ''Cheek" is equally good. There
is enough in either to demonstrate Mr..
Reeds ability to deal with everything in
the range of farce or light comedy, and
it is possible that he could do justice to
the phase of comedy that moves men to
tears, but thus far the tears shed are
tears of laughter. Mr.. Reeds chief
claim to distinction lies in the fact that
he is himself; he does not borrow; there
is not, in his movements, looks or tones.

committee on finance presented re-
port showing that the board had ST.
3o5.S7 and should provide s10,230 to pay
interest on bonds by Jan. l. Six hun
dred dollars was ordered paid on an
estimate to the contractors for building
the Prospect park Observator. The rate
of tax levy was fixed by resolution at
five-tenths of mill. A special COM
mittee of three, with the president OF
the board as chairman, was appointed
upon the motion of Mayor Ames to con-
slider the ACCESSIBILITY of securing addi-
tional grounds for park purposes be-
tween Lake of the Isles and
Lake Calhoun, and between Lakes
Calhoun and Harriet. The question of
as to whether the board should lease the
the boating and other privileges at Lake
Harriet. or should control and manage
the same, Commissioner Boardman
thought the most feasible plan would be
to lease to G. Nee. Reeve.
Mayor Ames said he thought the board
should retain the privileges and allow
the people instead of an individual to
have the revenue to be derived. He
thought the buildings should also be
utilized for winter sports. He wanted
consideration of the question postponed
one week, the committee on amusements
and winter sports to confer in the mean
time. A motion to this effect prevailed.
The board adjourned to next Monday.

THE FICKERs ARRESTED.
The Second Chapter of the Frid.
ley Murder Mystery.


ley Murder Mystery.
The second chapter in the murder of
DR.. William Brown, at Fridley ,0n Tues
| day last, was opened yesterday, when
| William Flicker and his son Herman,
| supposed to know great deal about the
matter, were placed under arrest. The
rest of the family were Subp9naed to
appear at the examination to be held at
| Anoka, Monday morning. The arrests
were made by the sheriff of Anoka
county on warrants issued by Justice
Hughes. DR.. s. A. Locke, of this city,
a brOther-in-law of the murdered man,
is instrumental in causing these arrests.
He went to Anoka early yesterday
morning, and after long conference
with County Attorney ID. l.. Bugbee,
decided to cause the arrest of the Flick
erS. { His theory is that there are num-
Der of people in Fridley who know
about the murder, but are afraid to say
anything for fear of the Flicker family.
William Flicker, charged with killing
DR.. Brown, was in Minneapolis yeSter-
day morning. He did not appear
greatly excited over the affair. When
asked about the matter, he said:
Brown and l were Just like brothers
As neighbOrS we often borrowed articles
of each other. My boy Herman was in
the stable when Brown came, and told
him to take the calf if it was his. Brown
went in and got it and took it away;
the boy stood outside and watched him
go away. / was eating breakfast at the
time. and when Lewis, the youngest
boy, went out to feed the COWS. Herman
told him Brown had got the calf. Lewis
came in and told me and | went out and
asked Herman why he hadn't told me
about it. Then l went over to Harry
Fridley'S and asked him about the calf.
how Brown claimed it. He said: Il
wouldn't stand it. would sue him. l
said Il wouldn't sue my nelghbor for no
money Then L went home and saw
the calf coming along dragging a rope.
thought Brown had found it wasn't
his calf and had let it go. l didn't find
out that Brown was dead until night"
Ficker's statement that he did not
hear of DR.. Brown death until evening,
is fatty contradicted by his own chill
dren, who say that the affair was talked
over at the dinner table.
The funeral services over the body of
DIR. Brown were held at the family resi-
dence yesterday afternoon, in the pres
ence of very large audience. Rev.
DIR. Van Anda, of this city, conducted
the services and preached an eloquent
sermon, which drew tears to the eyes of
all present. The burial will take place
in the cemetery at Minnetonka to-day.

original. Mr.. Reed begins short en-
gagement Monday evening, when ne
will present the farce-cOmedy of ''Hum-
bug" which will be repeated at the
Wednesday matinee. During the prog
ress of the play Mr.. Reed introduces
several new songs. A pocket edition of
''Erminie," containing gems from that
popular opera, and his ''Pious Rentals -
Tuesday night the new comedy from
the pen of David ID. Lloyd, an editorial
writer on the New York Tribune, will
be given. 1t is called, woman Hater.''
Roland Reed, secured prize when he
bought this play, for during its action
there is one constant roar of laughter
The pretended woman hater, who is
really a great admirer of the fair sex,
and who is only restrained from propoS-
ing by an abnormal bashfulness, finds
himself involved in not only one, but
three entangling alliances at one time.
This unhappy predicament form the
basis of innumerable ridiculous situa-
lions, not the least amusing of which is
this incarceration, by mistake, in a
private lunatic asylum. Mr.. Reed in
PRODUCES an eccentric song which is
highly amusing.
Wednesday night the engagement
closes by the presentation of Marsden'S
comedy drama, Check" 1t is full of
lively incidents, pleasing characters,
humorous phases, and has many novel
ties to strengthen it. The play is
charmingly put on the stage. The
musical numbers introduced into this
play include "Cunnin', Amt It?" Pm
a Perfect New York Dude," a new med
ley on 'Belfry Chimes"
THE CHIMNEY CORNER"
which will open at the Peoples theater
tonight is one of the most touching and
pathetic pictures of English home life
ever written. The character of Peter
PrOblty was always favOrite with the
veteran actor, G. w. COuldOck, and it
was the tenderness and pathOs of that
part that endeared the actor to many a
heart. 1.-THE Chimney Corner" has fur
nished the groundwork for many a sue
cessful play in later years, among
which may be mentioned Sully's great
comedy, 1.-The Corner Grocery" but
none will outlive or ever appeal so to
the human sympathieS as the original
itself. The story briefly told is of an
old London shopkeeper, who, with his
loving wife, Patty, his father, childish
old man ninety-one years of age, and his
son John, an honest, industrious boy of
twenty-one, live together in the rooms
in the rear of their store. Peter Probity
was once the firm friend of Phil Emery,
who. dying, left in Peters charge a
daughter. Grace Emery, also legacy of
about $4,000, which, at the opening of
the play, Peter has been to the stock
brokers' to collect. John Probity, the
son, has long been in love with Grace,
which love is reciprocated, but a cruel
sentence in the fathers will has
forbidden the union. Young Probity
is a clerk in the Office of a lawyer
by the name of Chiefly. Chiefly has
son Charles, who is ambitious to obtain
